STEVENSON, Md., Aug. 16, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A
Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the
District of New Jersey on behalf of purchasers of Weibo Corporation (Nasdaq:WB) (“Weibo” or the “Company”) securities during the
period between April 28, 2016 and June 22, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors who wish to become proactively
involved in the litigation have until August 28, 2017 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.
If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff and
be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including
whether to accept a settlement for the class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants
claiming the largest loss from investment in Weibo securities during the Class Period. Members of the class will be
represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. No class has yet been certified in the above
action.
The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the
defendants’ failure to disclose during the Class Period that the Company lacked a requisite internet audio/video program
transmission license and that Weibo was posting certain commentary programs with content in violation of Chinese government
regulations on its site.
According to the complaint, following a June 22, 2017 article stating that Weibo was ordered to stop streaming
political videos that were not in line with government regulations and a June 22, 2017 press release announcing the receipt of
order, the value of Weibo shares declined significantly.
If you have suffered a loss in excess of $100,000 from investment in Weibo securities purchased on or after
April 27, 2017 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period and would like
